Built to last, the cover is made from solvent and oil-resistant custom rubber Santoprene. It remains steadfast even when exposed to gun cleaners, lubricants, and solvents. Installation is a breeze – simply wipe your bolt tube with gun oil and slide on the bolt tube cover, all within 10 minutes.

M*CARBO's innovative design ensures the Bolt Tube Cover seamlessly integrates with your SUB-2000. There's no hindrance to the operation of the charging handle, and it ensures the bolt locks back appropriately. Additionally, it pairs harmoniously with all KEL TEC SUB 2000 aftermarket parts available for the SUB-2000.

Comfort while shooting is a given, as the cover aids in achieving a comfortable cheek weld with ease. For those who seek custom adjustments, the cover can be modified by cutting around the provided trim lines with a sharp instrument. Laser cutouts are also provided for the serial number, charging handle operation, and trim line guidance. Do note, these adjustments are permanent.

You got a face? Of course you do. You got a beard? Probably. Do you like cold metal jerking across your face and pulling out chin whiskers? Then you're a freak. For everyone else, buy the damn sleeve. It goes on in less time than it took for you to read this. Even if you didn't have to sound out the big words.

Double sided tape is included to stick the cover to the tube as you lose the encircling back portion. You can get more double-sided tape to add to it. Get handwear store or automotive type, not Wal-Mart type. Clean with alcohol to insure sticking. I left mine long as I don't have your issue. It is a nice touch as the recoil of a blowback action is more than some expect.

Vince Gato April 21, 2022 9:56 AM
Answers
Thanks for your question! No the NY/CA compliance kit will not affect your bolt tube cover options! The buttstock in that compliance kit will only be able to be fixed at the "longest" setting, and the grip fin will not be in the way, so as long as you select the correct cover based on the collar and sling mount questions, it will fit and sit flush for you! :)
